Alfredo Aceto's 'Something between Posthistoria and Prehistoria' at Barriera, Turin

exhibition · 2026-05-05

Alfredo Aceto (born 1991, Turin) presents 'Something between Posthistoria and Prehistoria' at Barriera in Turin, curated by Stéphanie Serra. The exhibition runs until December 6, 2016. The press release describes a space characterized by 'noisy silences' where time has prolonged its possibilities. Aceto's work involves a long obsessive process interrupted for display, resulting in a space that neither fixes nor remembers information, or paradoxically cannot forget, seeking alibis and screens. The exhibition features fictional essays by Tristan Lavoyer ('Must Fish be fried?') and Stéphanie Serra ('Un Racconto'). The venue is at Via Crescentino 25.
